With todays technologies in turbocharging, there are very few reasons to go twin turbo, and most of those reasons sound something like "Because its original." Todays more advanced larger turbos, especially the ball bearing turbos (GT3037 for example), spool very quickly, and unless you're planning on running ridiculous boost levels (you wont in a street car, and on a race car, low RPMs usually doesnt matter) theres really no reason.

I always type fairly long threads with complex sentence structures. It makes me seem intelligent. One day someone will look back on my threads and say "Man, this guy must've really known what he was talking about." Delusions of Grandeur anyone?

IMHO if you're asking here on what to buy for your "twin turbo" engine. Then you hardly have enough knowledge to pull of a rebuild...much less turbo'ing a n/a engine.

Start reading man. gl.
